I will use these phrases in humor, story telling, general description of human beings. . . I’m obsessed with the over-all declination of the human psyche. It’s fascinating.

So anyways. When my friend, Amy, turned to me and said she needed to create a line-graph based on her personal, every-day life, I smiled and said, “do one called My Levels Of Insanity Based On The Time Of Day.”

Insanity can be described as many things.

The overwhelming inclination to break the law, for instance.

Declining dessert.

Or that moment when you finally snap at your boss and tell her what you really think about the way she runs her business.

Or, it could be wearing heels to Disney Land.

Whatever the case, I describe insanity as the mental breaking point where any realm of self-control is a complete impossibility.

INSANITY LEVEL: 174.94 — Let’s go to IHOP, and then ice cream, and then frozen yogurt. And then let’s go see a movie. And then come back to my house. And watch another movie. Who’s up for tacos? Oh. My. Gosh. ALL NIGHTER! YESS! THE SKY’S AWAKE! SO I’M AWAKE!
